Seven Crowns

After the club's competition ended and he returned to China with his third triple crown, Lu Wenbin did not report to the national team first, but was summoned by the General Administration of Sports, and even met a national leader.

After the Chinese football anti-gambling anti-crime case was pronounced at the beginning of the year, the shady scenes of Chinese football shocked the world and the people of the whole country.

Only then did many ordinary people know that there were so many match-fixing, whistle-blowing and betting syndicates involved in Chinese football in the past.

Fans across the country were filled with righteous indignation and demanded that the management and management of Chinese football be separated, the Football Association be separated from the General Administration of Sports of the People's Republic of China, and professionals be hired to manage the Football Association, etc.

The phenomenon that officials of the Chinese Football Association have administrative levels, laymen manage experts, and engage in short-term achievements is too serious.

The salary restrictions within the system also made these high-ranking officials inevitably produce huge corruption.

Only by breaking the Football Association out of the system, hiring professionals to manage it, improving remuneration, and strengthening supervision, can it be possible to improve the general environment of Chinese football from the top.

After Lu Wenbin became the world's number one football star, won the Ballon d'Or, the Champions League, and broke records repeatedly, he brought considerable benefits to China and made countless foreigners know and love China again.

Therefore, as the representative of Chinese football and even the image of the country, Lu Wenbin has no choice but to participate in politics even if he doesn't care about politics.

I stayed in Beijing for three full days, and talked a lot with national leaders, leaders of the State Council, relevant leaders of the State Sports General Administration, and domestic football practitioners, involving the system reform of Chinese football, league improvement, echelon construction, referee training, and player quality. And so on.

In the end, the leaders made a decision to set up a leading group for China's football reform, with a leader personally serving as the team leader, and hiring professionals from domestic and foreign football, sports, legal, and economic circles, including Lu Wenbin, to carry out the reform. Refer to the consultant and start the Chinese football reform project.

This specification is quite high.

Of course, this is a rather complicated and systematic project, and it may not be completed in a few years. It is impossible for Lu Wenbin to participate in the whole process.

His main task is to lead the Chinese national team and the Olympic team to achieve good results on the field, to attract people's interest in football, and to create a good external environment for the reform of Chinese football.

On June 1, Lu Wenbin rushed to the National Football Team's Shanghai training base and met the coaching staff and teammates of the Asian Top Ten World Preliminaries.

The national team has some new faces,

The leader has also changed.

The key point is that the atmosphere, training mode, and management mode of the national team have all changed.

Before summoning Lu Wenbin, the State Sports General Administration took the lead in attacking the national team.

According to the latest management requirements, everything at the competitive level of the national team is decided by the head coach.

The team leader and the Football Association leaders can make suggestions on who to call and who not to call, what tactics to play in the game, but there is no interference. The team leader only needs to do his own logistics management work.

If you can't get results, the head coach will dismiss get out of class directly, and there is no one to shirk responsibility.

Because of the existence of Lu Wenbin, the sponsorship environment of the Chinese team has been greatly improved, and the available funds have been greatly enriched.

In order to make the generals work hard, not only the salaries of the coaching team and staff were greatly increased, but the players also bought commercial accident insurance from the moment they entered the national team.

In the past, the Chinese team had a bad reputation, few sponsorships, and poverty. They talked about politics and dedication, but they didn't talk about what to do if they got injured while playing for the national team.

The club didn't want to pay for the injury of the players playing the national football game, and felt that they were too wronged, so there were situations where the national football players were injured and needed to pay for their own medical treatment and talk about it.

The point is, being injured will also affect his appearance in the club and affect his income.

As a result, the fans saw that the national football players did not work hard on the field, did not dare to fight, and were afraid of being injured.

On the one hand, the players' ideological awareness is not high enough and they are unwilling to work hard for the country. The national team and the club have not reached a settlement on the accidental injury of the players.

Now such a situation does not exist in this national team.

According to the negotiation between the Football Association and the club, during the national team training and competition, the Football Association will pay for commercial insurance.

If a player is injured playing for the national team, not only will he receive full reimbursement of medical expenses, but he will also receive certain compensation.

In this way, even if the worries of the players are solved.

Of course, under such circumstances, if anyone does not work hard on the court and is condemned by fans on a large scale, causing public outrage, then he will never be allowed to play for national teams at all levels.

Although these things cannot 100% solve the combat effectiveness of the Chinese team, they can at least boost morale to a certain extent.

In addition, after entering the World Cup with Lu Wenbin, he is bound to gain great benefits in terms of fame and career.

Therefore, the mental outlook and fighting spirit of this national team have improved compared to the national team that Lu Wenbin entered before.

Especially in terms of logistics management, high salaries have brought in higher-level team doctors and chefs, and they are no longer allowed to provide national team players with hot pot, beer and other food that is harmful to their careers.

If a player eats prohibited food privately during the training period of the national team and breaks negative news, he will also be punished according to the situation. The maximum penalty is to be permanently barred from joining the national team at all levels.

In short, while the national team has given the coaching staff greater freedom in terms of autonomy, the management services for the players are also more professional.

The purpose of everything is for Chinese football, and Lu Wenbin is in favor of it anyway.

Chinese football must use a big knife.

The overall reform has not yet started, and it would be good to start with the national team first.

...

On June 3, 2012, Shanghai Hongkou Stadium, the first round of Group B of the 2014 Brazil World Cup qualifiers between China and Iraq officially started.

The Chinese team started the journey to once again qualify for the World Cup finals.

The top ten competition is the ten teams in Asia that have advanced from the top 20 competition. They are divided into two groups to play a double round-robin match. The top two teams in the group will directly advance to the Brazil World Cup finals.

The two groups have four places for direct promotion, and the third place has to play a play-off, which is more troublesome.

Therefore, everyone wants to directly get the top two and advance directly.

Group B of the Chinese team is composed of China, Japan, Australia, Iraq, and Oman. Compared with Group A, the strength is stronger, and the qualifying situation is more severe.

Of course, the severe situation is for Japan and Australia.

As the champion of the Asian Cup, the Chinese team led by Lu Wenbin should have no problem qualifying, it just depends on whether they can qualify ahead of schedule.

In the first round, the Chinese team played against Iraq at home, Japan played against Oman at home, and Australia had a bye.

Now, the fans at the scene and all over the country are just waiting for Lu Wenbin to lead the Chinese team to defeat Iraq and get a good start in the top ten.
